Andersson ended his point drought at 15 games when he found the empty net from his own corner with 2:29 left in the third period. It was the fourth goal of the year for the 24-year-old, one shy of the career high he established in 2019-20. Andersson has 17 points and 34 PIM in 47 games this season.

Andersson has gone 14 games without a point.
EDGE Analysis
In that span, the Swede has a minus-4 rating, 27 shots on net, 14 PIM and 14 blocked shots. Andersson still sees time on the power play, but he's not doing much with a significant role. He's posted 16 points, 81 shots on net and a minus-12 rating through 45 contests overall, but fantasy managers can likely find more offense from the blue line than he's provided lately.

Andersson posted two assists, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Monday's 4-3 overtime win over the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
Andersson was listed on the third pairing alongside rookie Connor Mackey for Monday's game, but it turned out to benefit the former. Andersson made two strong passes to set up goals by Milan Lucic and Elias Lindholm that erased the Flames' early 2-0 deficit. After the game, head coach Geoff Ward said he wanted to get Andersson to focus on his even-strength play, Darren Haynes of The Athletic reports. The Swedish blueliner should be back to the top pairing in the near future. He has two goals, seven helpers, 24 shots on net and 25 blocks through 15 appearances.
